6.6-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Jakub Acs <acsjakub@amazon.de>
[ Upstream commit a7c4bb43bfdc2b9f06ee9d036028ed13a83df42a ]
Calling intotify_show_fdinfo() on fd watching an overlayfs inode, while
the overlayfs is being unmounted, can lead to dereferencing NULL ptr.
This issue was found by syzkaller.

IOW ovl_check_encode_origin derefs inode->i_sb->s_root, after it was set
to NULL in the unmount path.
Fix it by protecting calling exportfs_encode_fid() from
show_mark_fhandle() with s_umount lock.
This form of fix was suggested by Amir in [1].
